The Flaming Lips have released the final of their (almost) monthly 2011 releases at the New Year Freakout, a collaborative EP with Yoko Ono Plastic Ono Band.

Each of the Limited Edition (2000 only) psychedelic, multi-color, glow-in-the-dark 12″ vinyl records is a one-of-kind piece of art.

Let’s sing, dance and hug each other to bring in a new year and with it, a new world.@YokoOno

Recording “Atlas Eets Christmas”

Travelling to New York to record at the Flaming Lips studio with Dave Fridmann and at Sean Lennon’s studio, and features the Flaming Lips in the studio with Sean and the Plastic Ono Band recording two of the three tracks on the EP’s A-side “The Fear Litany” and “Brain of Heaven.”

More cool sounds as the Flaming Lips play with Sean Lennon’s drum machine and synth… and then they travel back to Oklahoma…

INFINITE UNIVERSE AT DAWN

MESSAGE FROM YOKO ONO

Dear Friends,
I was totally surprised how beautiful the INFINITE UNIVERSE AT DAWN book came out to be. It is more like a conceptual sculpture than a book. The artistic sensitivity and exactitude exercised to report the multi-dimensional history of my work is nothing but amazing. In fact I am speechless at this point!
Thank you, Genesis Publications.
love, .
